Also, just a random bit of Trivia: Before 'Cybernetics' became synonymous with protheses in colloquial english, in the Soviet Union and it's sphere of influence, the term used to refer to a branch of economics dedicated to research how to emulate the organic feedback-mechanisms that make market-economies a functional economic model through early computer simulation. The theory that emerged was that computers could improve on that by extrapolating from current data to automatically adjust production-quotas to prevent imminent issues. Cybernetics originally refers to the study of regulatory systems as a concept. That line of research got defunded due to factional rivalries in the early Brezhnev years.

@@sharkmano1138 unfortunately, that won’t be the case as I think in an interview, I don’t know where honestly, he has no interest in expanding further on the CIS which is why we see them lose or be comedic relief instead of becoming an actual threat.

For sure!

Would they have gained anything if they won? They're just droids in the eyes of the separatists.

I can't believe they gave a wookie a medal, but not the brave droids fighting for the freedom of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. smh

That just sounds like Sepy propaganda!

They were built to fight and kill, and then hated and reviled for doing what they were made for.

better would be Anakin saying yes

General Grevious agrees.

Droids: "we're droids, we're meant to be expendable" Me: Not to me. Never.

@@ImAmirus Actually, organics CAN be coded into whatever you want. This has happened before, during the Old Republic Era, when the sith lord Darth Revan's mind was destroyed in a fleet battle, and then reprogrammed by the Jedi Council into being a jedi. He eventually went on to defeat his own former apprentice, Darth Malik, and dismantle the Sith Empire.

Mando season 3

ayooo

I’m guessing it’s like a USB port, it’s a universal Droid port that r2 units have acccess too

@@PyroEnderSlayer I meant this more as a joke about plot convenience but that’s actually a good point.

In the newest episode of clone wars, order 66 happens and Ahsoka calls some astromechs for help. They lock a door, but the clones begin "lockpicking" it with a little tool that fits in the exact same place that the astromechs locked it. I guess that the astromech probing tools are very versatile and serve as both mechanical and electronic general purpose manipulators.

The tool R2 uses for those ports is called a "Scomp link" it serves as a way for droids communicate with machinery and transfer data. In rouge one we saw that K2 (a reprogrammed imperial security droid) was equipped with one of these tools. This probably explains why the empire had so many of the ports around.

In Rebels, the 'pen' looking devices that Imperial officers carried in their tunic pockets were used in those slots. Different colored devices denoting security clearances for areas and computer networks. Certain kinds of droids used these devices as well, like R2D2 and Chopper.

Meanwhile the Wookie slaves:(What the fuck)

Considering most Imperial citizens were unaware of Vader's existence and that the extent of his cybernetics was likely completely unknown to even the most elite in the Empire, its unlikely anyone would have an prejudices against him. And considering that cybernetics seems to be fairly common (Lobot and other Imperial Monitors.) its unlikely there was a large amount of animosity against people w/cybernetics. They may have been viewed with suspicious, but not outright animosity. Its also likely that most people werent even aware that Grevious was a cyborg and not an super intelligent tactical droid.

I think that propaganda didn't address the fact that Grievous was a cyborg, the most important aspect of propaganda is the fact that it twists the facts to use them in its narration, and fact is that Grievous looked more like a droid so he was probably dubbed a droid, not a cyborg

If i had a battle droid i would let it live it's own life

Well the bad writing of the clone wars TV show often depicts the separatist as irredeemably evil because we can't handle nuance, just flashy visuals and fan service with plothole wriddled writing and incompetent villains. In actuality and the films. The separatists are a justified and Noble cause. With the Republic attacking first in the clone war. the Battle of geonosis was Republic prisoners being arrested for murder after breaking into a genotian factory to rescue a spy, killing countless workers and security forces. Resisting arrest and refusing to cooperate. The Jedi sent a large and reckless strike team to slaughter inhabitants of an arena and attack the separatist leadership, losing most of their group and declaring war on the separatists formally. Leading their army of slave child soldiers bred to die in a frontal charge with no cover on a horrible desert planet dying in Mass. The Republic continued the war despite their inferior numbers, massive debt and economy that wouldn't have lasted a prolonged conflict along with the separatists simply being able to win a battle of attrition due to their Superior numbers and Mass production. The separatists just wanted independence. Sith interference made both sides incredibly villainous to an extent but it wasn't black and white like the TV show depicts.even listening to the theme songs it's pretty clear the Republic are the villains of the clone war. Not to mention shooting their leaders in the back and changing history after the separatist army is deactivated. With all of the leaders being slaughtered after surrendering and their corporations absorbed by the empire. Long story short the Confederacy was a justified cause and in the right of the clone war Not only that but the Confederate population undoubtedly saw people like general grievous and count dooku as heroes. Their versions of Anakin and Obi-Wan, tactical geniuses and heroes of the front line. Grievous was probably a separatist war hero and depending on the planet would change your view of him.

@@gageowo9527 Sounds like separatist propaganda, but ok

But using B1 droids would be incredibly bad PR, as plenty of Imperial citizens, officers, and troopers have bad memories of the CIS droid army. The advantages of extra droid troopers would be outweighed by the additional support rebels would gain from the empire making itself look like that

Droids are less disobedient slaves.

Tbh I would be taking a b1 just for a house droid.

(Aka just giving the boi freedom in the home as I don't it would be willing to go into the streets of haters. But the short is I see how utility capable the b1s are because they are basic in form like pack it up and ship it in a gonk case. They can be sleeping a entire trip not phased. And maybe upgrade the programing for house chores so it can do the things it needs. Atlest I know what to do with a b1 if I ever had one in that universe as repurposing them is easy.

@@user-qk4pe2wq9g don't hassle the hoff

IT IS NOT A MATTER OF IF, IT MATTER OF WHEN

Depends on the droid

Exactly

Stormtroopers are ruthlessly effective in A New Hope and empire strikes back and the first half of return of the jedi. Sure they lost the battle of endor but they did great otherwise. It's just the terrible writing of the mandalorian turning them into a walking joke that makes them seem so ineffective. Disney just has a hate boner for stormtroopers. They are far more effective than the B1 battle droid, and a squadron of Stormtroopers would stand a decent chance against mixed battle droids. But they would certainly lose to the Super Battle droid, Destroyers or magna guard

*Flails my hand like an idiot* “Changed your mind”

No thanks. Why change your mind if your already correct.

Exactly, uncle Ben and Luke sure didn't seem to have a problem with picking up a couple of cheap, "previously owned" droids.

I mean, the guy made Greedo’s corpse into a drink because it would make Jabba happy and he did taste it to make sure.

That name is very german in a bad way.

Yeah, but in Resistance, Kragan did mention his B2 battle droids were extremely expensive.

Probably would be for collectors at least I’m not sure most would buy them for work

B1, B2, B3 droids too. The mission with the old clone trooper featured 2 B3 bodyguards

They look like imperial sentry droids from rebels

To be honest Mando was quite tolerant of them, he certainly didn't like them, but he was rather tame dispite the grudge of loosing his parents to droids.

Honestly he is pretty chill around when compared to some other people, especially considering he lost his parents to droids.

🤣

1st degree droids such as medical droids were hated least as they were just too useful to get rid of. Iirc, Imperials preferred the FX line of medical droids because they couldn't talk back 😉 Typically, any droid under the Empire would have to be fitted with a restraining bolt and have frequent memory wipes to try to keep them from going rogue

Those weren't battle droids. Also, he said one that went anywhere. There was another, the terror droids from Force Unleashed II, but we never see them again, so I'm assuming it didn't last for very long.

Security droids like K2SO don't count as battle droids either despite being better at combat than stormtroopers in every conceivable way.

@@stuartwashington2658 I bet you would have been of a wildly different opinion if you had actually read some of the Legends novels. They are amazing. It is sad that you people dismiss the Legends stuff out of hand without giving it a chance. You could at least have read the Heir to the Empire trilogy to see what great shit Disney robbed you of.

@@1Anime4you I read Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising, and The Last Command. I know who Talon Karrde is. I'm just saying that there are two Canons, and it should be specified. My comment was not a quality judgment. There's good and bad things about Legends and Disney Canon. Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

@@stuartwashington2658 I get that sentiment. It is pretty common for videos to label it. Nevertheless, the fact that videos on the Disney canon are usually not labeled as such while the good old, correct canon has to be labeled as "Legends" makes the Disney crap seem more legit when it is worse than the old EU stuff by many orders of magnitude. I do not excuse my own bias on this one. I feel the same way about the Sequels as I do about the Holiday Specials. The only one of the Disney movies that was even remotely okay to me was Rogue One because it explained something that had thus far not been explained in the Legends canon, and could thus be retroactively fitted into said canon. The reason so many of us are still pissed off about the whole ordeal is that we all know that if Lucas had not been tricked into 'selling his own children to the white slavers,' as he put it, we would most likely still be getting new Legends EU content. There is no way that that will happen with Disney at the helm. I can only confide in the fact that I have only read 20 or so novels out of many hundreds from the old Legends Canon, but when that runs out, where do I go...

killioman kili my guess would be as more Jedi got killed they'd have been reassigned to special forces or as trainers for imperial recruits, kinda like the clones were.

As far as I know we've only seen them in one source so far - Jedi Fallen Order. That was fairly early on in the Empire's life span, 5 years post-RotS. It could be that the Purge Trooper program was deemed ineffective and shut down? I'd like to see a bit more of them though.

Remaining purge troopers would probably have been retrained and redeployed as royal guards, deathtroopers, shadow troopers or just retired.

Probably a mix of both to be fair.

@@sonjagrey321 Yep.

Given one is a astromech(multipurpose) and a protocol droid(translator), that basically asking to leave behind luggage with purpose.
